Getting in touch with the developers

Getting in touch with the developers of the IPFire distribution is not always that easy. It depends a lot on the topic you are reaching out and what your goal is. This is mainly because of a simple thing:

Developers are busy

They receive lots of emails a day with all sorts of things they need to take care of. They also have day jobs. So please at all times avoid sending emails directly to any developer at any time unless they ask you to. There is almost never a reason to send private emails.

This will also often delay getting a response when you get stuck in someone's inbox.

Send emails to lists

Instead of sending personal emails, please send them to the right mailing list. You will find there a group of people who are able to reply which will give you a quick reply and your conversation will be archived so that people can find it if they have the same question.
